WINNER OF THE 2019 HL KOKERNOT, JR. MEMORIAL AWARD ($500)
“Ocean in the Sky” by Dustin Garza

“This image draws the eye immediately to the lightning and then your view flows naturally to the rain flowing down on the Twin Sisters. The colors are very appealing, the horizon is level, the focus is excellent, and the drama in the clouds is powerful. Excellent exposure for a dark setting. This image just screams west Texas monsoon and captures the experience of Alpine for residents and travelers alike.”
— Lee Hoy, 2019 Alpine TX Photo Contest Judge
